I NEVER use plastic to store magickal things. With plastic being made from chemicals I don't want that influance in my magick. I use glass. I like mason jars, old jelly jars that I clean out well, any glass that I can reuse I do. Also the mason jars you can buy by the case in all different sizes at Walmart really cheap. they are tight fitting & can be sterilized which I do if I am putting a healing salve in or other healing potion of any kind.I also sterilize the jars b4 putting in lotions or bath potions. Like I said it is just my opinion but I never use plastic, also when using plastic, chemical influance aside, if you want to reuse the container, more often than not, you can't because plastic has a tendency of absorbing the scent of whatever is in it. Think about left over pasta sauce that you put in a tupperware. Well, I hope my 2 cents helps.

I also prefer glass for potions and/or mixtures.  I keep my candles and incense and charcole in tupperware to keep my dog from eating them (he likes the smell, I guess) and harming himself.  For everything else, it's glass.

I use glass jars and bottles to store liquids, while I have a wooden chest with dividers that I made to store my candles. 

I have to hide my candles because my dog considers them yummy chewies too.  I don't know what it is about them.  

I know several witches who use tupperware, for all kinds of things.  One's been a practicing witch for over 65 years and loves her tupperware.

I guess in the end, it's just a personal preference.  Go with what feels right you.

Definitely glass... there's plenty of ways to find glass containers too.. from reusnig glass bottles and jars to jelly jars... I know these can be found at flea markets, yard sales.. junk sellers almost always have jelly jars/canning jars of various sizes..

Plastic absorbs too many odors and also have a way different feel to them.. cheap, unsubstantial.. Glass is heftier and has a more permanent feel... I even keep cooking spices in jelly jars in my little spice cabinet and it works well... I can label them easily with stickers and you can see much easier through the glass than with plastic to know what you're grabbing..

Ideally, I go with glass.  Old pickle jars, bottles found in the ground, whatever.  But, I also have small children so I do have some things in plastic.  The danger is just too great to even try to have all glass.
